Many people from the Alma-Elmsdale-Alberton area had Vera for a school teacher - she taught for many years. My father Wilbert Jeffery had her for a teacher at Alma School in the late 1930's and my younger brothers Kerras and Kenny had Vera for a teacher at Elmsdale and Alberton Elementary Schools in the late 1970's. Kenny always said she was his favourite teacher of all.
Vera's older sister Blanche (Rennie) Crockett was also a school teacher and took over Rennie's Store following her father's death.
Vera passed away on January 14th, 2015 at the age of 94. See her obituary in a previous post on this blog...
